Best Gaper qoute of the weekend?

Made the mistake of going out today. No headphones. Heard many a sweet comments from Texans in line, but a Nebraskan gets my vote today.
"Them there moguls were made for kids skis, not the big long ones we're on'" - 6'2" guy from Omaha on 153 rentals

Between yesterday and today, I have seen the full spectrum of gaper-tourist-debauchery. The best one I have ever heard though has got to be, "Are the entrances to the ski lodges very big?" Turned out this person thought that you walked around the lodge with your skis on, and only clicked out of the bindings when you get back your car.

Back in December, 9 inches of fresh snow on the trails and still snowing, the man with a one-piece fartbag says to his wife in the lift line "I am not real impressed with the grooming here."

Of course, it was heard at Killington...

I heard a similar conversation between an older gentleman and a mountain ambassador at Mt. Snow last year after a day when 8-10 inches fell throughout the day. He thought it was too dangerous to ski and felt they should take groomers to it. I walked by shaking my head in disbelief.

Two douche fucks in front of me today trashing on my local mtn "this place doesn't have enough cliffs"...we're on the chair behind them and watch them both eat shit getting off the lift...I told them to learn to get off the fucking lift before they ever try jumping off of anything.

I'm doing WFA this weekend and one of the guys, who obviously doesn't know much about the outdoors, smugly asks our teacher "so, uh, can you tie the one handed bowline?" Our teacher sort of pauses trying to understand why he would ask such a retarded question and says "uh, yeah... thats an important one to know..." (very sarcastically). It was hilarious.

The sad, miserable reality of our stability here in the Canadian Rockies makes the following a gapper quote

"When are they going to open (Delirium Dive/ Whitehorn II)?"

These are the interesting, steep "freeride" zones out here and they are not setting up at all... the BC is producing a death or close call every week and skiers still expect snowsaftey to produce instant stability inbounds in tricky terrain.

While holding the mountain house doors open (in uniform, with a smile and polite personality full on), a middle-aged woman slips and takes a digger on some glistening ice. Upon getting helped up, she proclaims:

Didn't hear it personally but a local I was on a chair with today said that earlier in the day she saw an adult uncle point to a disabled skier with the Adaptive Sport Center and tell his child nephew, "hey if you practice really hard you might get as good as that guy". I think the ASC skier had Cerebral Palsy. The local called him out and almost tossed him off the chair.
